Northern Netherlands metallic hardcore outfit Boneripper unveils music video for “Deeds Define,” the final preview from their upcoming second record, Radiant in Ruin, set for release this Friday, 26 June, on vinyl and CD as well as across digital platforms.
Says Boneripper: “‘Deeds Define’ is about choosing action over empty words. In a world full of noise, outrage, and endless debate, it reminds us that character is built by what we do — not what we claim to believe. Instead of arguing about what a good person should be, this song calls for leading by example and living your values every day. Because in the end, truth is not spoken — it is lived.”

Boneripper’s Radiant in Ruin stares straight into the current world, a world full of corruption, violence, environmental collapse, and social fracture. It calls out power structures, hypocrisy, and collective denial, but keeps circling back to the idea that survival isn’t granted, it’s chosen. It’s bleak, but not passive: more a warning shouted through clenched teeth than a lament, standing against oppression and refusing to break under pressure.
Boneripper will play Hostile Territory, a benefit festival in Dordrecht, on 26 June. A record release show in Leeuwarden is scheduled for 3 July, followed by an appearance supporting Agnostic Front in Rotterdam on 5 July. In addition, a slew of shows are lined up for this year.
